reload: use OnRestart (#1709)

* reload: use OnRestart

Close the listener on OnRestart for health and metrics so the default
setup function can setup the listener when the plugin is "starting up".

Lightly test with some SIGUSR1-ing. Also checked the reload plugin with
this, seems fine:

With this corefile:
.com {
  proxy . 127.0.0.1:53
  prometheus :9054
  whoami
  reload
}

. {
  proxy . 127.0.0.1:53
  prometheus :9054
  whoami
  reload
}

The prometheus port was 9053, changed that to 54 so reload would pick it
up.

From a cursory look it seems this also fixes:
Fixes #1604 #1618 #1686 #1492

* At least make it test

* Use onfinalshutdown

* reload: add reload test

This test #1604 adn right now fails.

* Address review comments

* Add bug section explaining things a bit

* compile tests

* Fix tests

* fixes

* slightly less crazy

* try to make prometheus setup less confusing

* Use ephermal port for test

* Don't use the listener

* These are shared between goroutines, just use the boolean in the main
  structure.
* Fix text in the reload README,
* Set addr to TODO once stopping it
* Morph fturb's comment into test, to test reload and scrape health and
  metric endpoint

## Bugs
The reload happens without data loss (i.e. DNS queries keep flowing), but there is a corner case
where the reload fails, and you loose functionality. Consider the following Corefile:
~~~ txt
. {
health :8080
whoami
}
~~~
CoreDNS starts and serves health from :8080. Now you change `:8080` to `:443` not knowing a process
is already listening on that port. The process reloads and performs the following steps:
1. close the listener on 8080
2. reload and parse the config again
3. fail to start a new listener on 443
4. fail loading the new Corefile, abort and keep using the old process
After the aborted attempt to reload we are left with the old proceses running, but the listener is
closed in step 1; so the health endpoint is broken. The same can hopen in the prometheus metrics plugin.
In general be careful with assigning new port and expecting reload to work fully.
